Mod-problem: Time to turn out the lights and put up the closed sign on ChipDir group?


Hello,

there are some more groups at yahoo not having this problem, they
simply set preferences to

"members may post only"
"new member acceptance only after review"

No spam at all on those

Jan


Mit freundlichen Gruessen---best regards----cordialement
